waiting4acruise Posted June 22, 2007 #1 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Are there any Hilton brand Hotels ( i.e. Hilton, Hampton Inn, Embassy Suites, Homewood Suites) close to the cruise terminal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michelle2 Posted June 22, 2007 #2 Share Posted June 22, 2007 On June 9 we stayed at the Hampton Inn at Ybor. They had a free shuttle to the pier. It was probably 2 miles away. The Ybor area has a lot of clubs and partying. It was quite a show to arrive in that area at 11:00 at night. But, the hotel is off the main street and we didn't heard any noise. The hotel was nice. We just wanted somewhere to crash in between our late flight in and getting on the Legend the next morning. The breakfast was pretty good. I would recommend it.

suncoastgirl Posted June 23, 2007 #3 Share Posted June 23, 2007 There is an Embassy Suites within walking distance of the pier. It will either be listed as Channelside or Convention Center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
signman Posted June 23, 2007 #4 Share Posted June 23, 2007 Embassy Suites is the closest. Hampton Inn and Hilton Garden in Ybor are less than a mile away, and connected by the trolley. My order of preference would be Embassy, Hilton Garden, Hampton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruisingAgain Posted June 23, 2007 #6 Share Posted June 23, 2007 We're staying at the Embassy Suites Tampa - Downtown Convention Center - in November. That's the one near the port. I've heard great things about it. I didn't realize Embassy Suites was the Hilton Family until this trip. We usually stay at a Hilton or Hampton Inn. This Embassy Suites is 30,000 HH points if you have the points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
